MTB Supply 3 ft Green U-Channel Metal Fence Posts — Pack of 10, 14-Gauge Powder-Coated Steel with Anchor Plates

These are 3-foot green powder-coated steel U-channel fence posts (pack of 10) designed to support 24-inch welded wire, poultry netting, and other low garden fences.

MTB Supply's 3-foot metal fence posts provide a compact, corrosion-resistant solution for short perimeter and garden enclosures. Each post measures three feet total with roughly one foot intended to be driven into the ground, offering about two feet of visible height—ideal for 24-inch high welded wire and similar low-profile barriers. The posts come with pre-punched tabs to attach fencing easily and a swedged anchor plate for improved stability.

How do these posts make installing a 24" welded wire fence easier?

These U-channel posts include tabs welded along the length to secure rolled wire quickly without complicated brackets. The pre-drilled holes let you mount signs or other markers. Their swedged anchor plate and 14-gauge steel body add rigidity so the assembly stays straight while you fasten fencing.

• Tabs positioned for rapid stapling or tie-wire attachment
• Pre-drilled 0.2" holes for sign mounts or guide pins
• 3" x 3.5" anchor plate increases anchoring at ground level
• 14-gauge, 1.3" wide steel resists bending during installation

Will these metal posts resist outdoor wear and rust?

The posts are finished with a green powder-coat that protects the steel from moisture and surface corrosion, extending outdoor life compared with bare steel. Powder coating also provides a uniform color that blends into garden settings and requires less maintenance than painted finishes.

• Durable powder coat reduces oxidation and flaking
• Green finish blends with lawn and plantings for subtle appearance
• Steel core remains strong for seasons of use with minimal upkeep

What uses and fence types are these stakes compatible with?

These U-channel posts are versatile for short fences and signaling posts around gardens, flower beds, poultry runs, and small animal enclosures. They support 24" welded wire, chicken wire, hardware cloth, snow fencing, and temporary netting. You can also use them as sign posts or corner anchors when matched with appropriate fittings.

• 24" welded wire and 24" poultry netting
• Hardware cloth, snow fence, and temporary garden netting
• Sign posts, corner anchors, and gate-marker applications

How tall are these posts once installed and how stable will they be?

Each post is three feet long with about one foot designed to be driven into soil, leaving approximately two feet of visible height—suitable for 24-inch high fences. Stability is enhanced by the swedged anchor plate at the bottom and the 14-gauge steel construction, though final stability depends on soil type and installation depth.

• Total length: 3 feet; bury about 12 inches for typical installations
• Visible fence height after installation: roughly 2 feet
• Stability aided by swedged anchor plate and robust steel gauge
